RM OSLC - created links don't seem to persist

hi all

I'm developing my first RM OSLC app which at some point will create a link between two requirements.

The code I started with is from the OSLC workshop RM example 03. This is in a GC context, I should add.

I just don't see the links in the GUI, or if I inquire programmatically, although they appear to be present right after creation.And no error is thrown. (This is RM 6.0.6.1)

Here's some code:

I seem to have missed something.

    private void updateRequirement(OslcClient oslcClient, String sourceURL, String targetURL) throws Exception {
        Thread.sleep(3000); //wait for indexing
       
        //Get the document we just created
        ClientResponse sourceResponse = oslcClient.getResource(sourceURL, OSLCConstants.CT_RDF);
       
        if (sourceResponse.getStatusCode() != 200) {
            sourceResponse.consumeContent();
            throw new HttpResponseException(sourceResponse.getStatusCode(),
                    sourceResponse.getMessage());
        }   
        Requirement sourceReq = sourceResponse.getEntity(Requirement.class);
        List<String> etagValues = sourceResponse.getHeaders().get("etag");
        Link links[] = sourceReq.getSatisfies();
        for (Link link : links) {
            log.println("S LINK: " + link);
        }
       
        //Get the document we just created
        ClientResponse targetResponse = oslcClient.getResource(targetURL, OSLCConstants.CT_RDF);
       
       
        if (targetResponse.getStatusCode() != 200) {
            targetResponse.consumeContent();
            throw new HttpResponseException(targetResponse.getStatusCode(),
                    targetResponse.getMessage());
        }   
        Requirement targetReq = targetResponse.getEntity(Requirement.class);
        List<String> tetagValues = targetResponse.getHeaders().get("etag");
       
   
        Link satisfies = new Link(targetReq.getAbout());
        sourceReq.setSatisfies(new Link[] { satisfies });
       
        sourceResponse = etagValues != null ?
                oslcClient.updateResource(sourceURL, sourceReq, OSLCConstants.CT_RDF,
                                          OSLCConstants.CT_RDF,
                                          etagValues.get(etagValues.size() - 1)) :               
                oslcClient.updateResource(sourceURL, sourceReq, OSLCConstants.CT_RDF,
                                          OSLCConstants.CT_RDF);
               
        sourceResponse.consumeContent();
        if (sourceResponse.getStatusCode() != 200) {
            sourceResponse.consumeContent();
            throw new HttpResponseException(sourceResponse.getStatusCode(),
                    sourceResponse.getMessage());
        }       
        targetResponse = tetagValues != null ?
                oslcClient.updateResource(targetURL, targetReq, OSLCConstants.CT_RDF,
                                          OSLCConstants.CT_RDF,
                                          tetagValues.get(tetagValues.size() - 1)) :               
                oslcClient.updateResource(targetURL, targetReq, OSLCConstants.CT_RDF,
                                          OSLCConstants.CT_RDF);
               
        targetResponse.consumeContent();
       
       
        if (targetResponse.getStatusCode() != 200) {
            targetResponse.consumeContent();
            throw new HttpResponseException(targetResponse.getStatusCode(),
                    targetResponse.getMessage());
        }
       
        Link alinks[] = sourceReq.getSatisfies();
        for (Link link : alinks) {
            log.println("LINK: " + link);
        }
        log.println("Linked");
        //If we get here then our PUT succeeded and the requirement should have our link now
    }
